It’s been a month since I got the call that I’d been laid off from VIBE.

It was the joy and honor of my life to serve as the R&B Reporter. I will still continue to document R&B through my platform, Play The B Sides, until I find a more permanent editorial home. 🤎

Thank you so much, Lex! It means a lot.
those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures
It was announced on October 16, 2025 that VIBE was "joining forces" with Rolling Stone. As a result, the majority of VIBE employees were laid off. If you have the means to give, this team could use the support! www.gofundme.com/f/support-vi...

Thank you so much for amplifying, Aiyana!

Hi everyone. I was the R&B Reporter at VIBE for 4 years prior to the merger. The past few weeks have been a whirlwind, but on behalf of my former team, we thank you for your support.
